Python For Macos Catalina

A clean installation of Catalina includes a /usr/bin/python3 binary, but it's a stub for installing the command line developer tools, which includes Python 3. If/when the command line developer tools are installed, the /usr/bin/python3 stub will run the actual python3 binary, but a clean install will just have the stub. I am experiencing a Python menu issue on both of my Mac's. One Mac has macOS Catalina and Python 3.7.4 via pyEnv with Tcl/Tk 8.6.9 and the other has macOS Catalina and Python 3.8.0. Via pyEnv and Tcl/Tk 8.6.9 and both area exhibiting the same behavior. This behavior did not exist before upgrading from macOS Mojave to macOS Catalina.

I'm still working on getting pyenv in my bloodstream. It seems like totally the right tool for having different versions of Python available on macOS that don't suddenly break when you run brew upgrade periodically. But every thing I tried failed with an error similar to this:

I read through the Troubleshooting FAQ and the 'Common build problems' documentation. xcode was up to date and I had all the related brew packages upgraded. Nothing seemed to work.

Until I saw this comment on an open pyenv issue: 'Unable to install any Python version on MacOS'

Python 2.7 Macos Catalina

All I had to do was replace the 10.14 for 10.15 and now it finally worked here on Catalina 10.15. So, the magical line was this:

The right and wrong way to set up Python 3 on MacOS, When I installed a module to tinker around with, I got a reminder that I needed to install Python 3 soon. $ pip install todoist-python Maria Campbell provides a post on installing the latest version of Python on Mac OS Catalina and overriding the old default pre-installed version. This article will help you to set up a Python virtual environment on Mac OS or your Macbook.If you are a Mac user, you should know that Python 2.7.x comes pre-installed in your Macbook, but as that is required by your operating system, so you cannot modify it or update it and I would recommend that you don't use it at all.

Hopefully, by blogging about it you'll find this from Googling and I'll remember the next time I need it because it did eat 2 hours of precious evening coding time.

macOS graphical install¶

  1. Download the graphical macOS installer for your version of Python.

  2. RECOMMENDED: Verify data integrity with SHA-256.For more information on hashes, see What about cryptographic hash verification?

  3. Double-click the downloaded file and click continue to start the installation.

  4. Answer the prompts on the Introduction, Read Me, and License screens.

  5. Click the Install button to install Anaconda in your ~/opt directory (recommended):

  6. OR, click the Change Install Location button to install in another location (not recommended).

    On the Destination Select screen, select Install for me only.

    Note

    If you get the error message “You cannot install Anaconda in this location,” reselect Install for me only.

  7. Click the continue button.

  8. Optional: To install PyCharm for Anaconda, click on the link to https://www.anaconda.com/pycharm.

    Or to install Anaconda without PyCharm, click the Continue button.

  9. A successful installation displays the following screen:

  10. Verify your installation.

Using the command-line install¶

Use this method if you prefer to use a terminal window.

  1. In your browser, download the command-line version of themacOS installer for your system.

  2. RECOMMENDED: Verify data integrity with SHA-256.For more information on hash verification, see cryptographic hash validation.

    • Open a terminal and run the following:

    Note

    Replace /path/filename with your installation’s path and filename.

  3. Install for Python 3.7 or 2.7:

    • For Python 3.7 enter the following:

    • For Python 2.7, open the Terminal.app or iTerm2 terminal application and then enter the following:

    Note

    Include the bash command regardless of whether or not you are using the Bash shell.

    Note

    Replace ~/Downloads with your actual path and Anaconda3-2020.02-MacOSX-x86_64.sh with actual name of the file you downloaded.

  4. The installer prompts “In order to continue the installation process, please review the license agreement.”Click Enter to view the license terms.

  5. Scroll to the bottom of the license terms and enter yes to agree to them.

  6. The installer prompts you to Press Enter to confirm the location, Press CTRL-C to cancel the installationor specify an alternate installation directory. If you confirm the default location,it will display PREFIX=/home/<user>/anaconda<2or3> and continue the installation.

    Note

    Unlike the graphical install, installing the shell file will place it in ~/anaconda<2 or 3> by default,not ~/opt. This is due to limitations with installing .pkg files on macOS Catalina.

    Installation may take a few minutes to complete.

    Note

    We recommend you accept the default install location. Do not choose the path as /usr for theAnaconda/Miniconda installation.

  7. The installer prompts “Do you wish the installer to initialize Anaconda3by running conda init?” We recommend “yes”.

    Note

    If you enter “no”, then conda will not modify your shell scripts at all.In order to initialize after the installation process is done, first runsource<pathtoconda>/bin/activate and then run condainit.

    Note

    If you are on macOS Catalina, the new default shell is zsh.You will instead need to run source<pathtoconda>/bin/activatefollowed by condainitzsh.

  8. The installer displays “Thank you for installing Anaconda!”

  9. Optional: The installer describes the partnership between Anaconda and JetBrains andprovides a link to install PyCharm for Anaconda athttps://www.anaconda.com/pycharm.

  10. Close and open your terminal window for the Anaconda installation to take effect.

  11. To control whether or not each shell session has the base environmentactivated or not, run condaconfig--setauto_activate_baseFalseorTrue. To run conda from anywhere without having the base environmentactivated by default, use condaconfig--setauto_activate_baseFalse.This only works if you have run condainit first.

    Note

    condainit is available in conda versions 4.6.12 and later.

  12. Verify your installation.
